Holy Christain Family Orhanage is a non-governmental, non-profit organization which was established in 2007 by the family of Mr Jefferson Woods, as a fulfillment of a vow made to God some years back. We were established out of the desire to provide shelter, succor, clothing, emotional care, and hope for a better future for the vulnerable children in our society.
We cater for the abandoned, orphaned, surrendered, abused, and children in need of care and protection.
Holy Christain Family Orphanage is overseen by a board of unique and dedicated members who are involved in various capacities to see to the proper running of the home. We are tremendously grateful for their advice, resources and readiness to support our efforts.
Our Belief
At Holy Christian Family Orphanage, we believe every orphan child should have the same education, opportunity and basic amenity as children with parents. We exist to ensure that the orphans are adequately catered
Our Vision
To provide succor for the abandoned, orphaned and vulnerable children until they are either given up for adoption, guardianship or are equipped to live an independent life.
Our Mission
To rehabilitate and defend abandoned and orphaned children. To nurture these children in a Christian family set up. To provide physical, emotional and spiritual care.
The Founder
Jefferson Woods had always believed in the power of family. Born and raised in Cape Town, South Africa, he grew up in a humble yet loving home where kindness and generosity were not just words but a way of life. His parents, devout believers in community service, taught him from a young age that the true measure of a person was not in their wealth but in the lives they touched. As Jefferson grew older, he built a beautiful family of his own his wife, Margaret, and their four children: three daughters, Lily, Grace, and Amelia, and their youngest, a son named Nathan.
